Not because of security, but because of stability, you might thing of putting /var/mail and/or spool-directries as extra partitions to avoid overruns rendiering the system unusable. If allowing imap/pop without ssl, you might either seperate postfix and imap/pop in some extra account-managment, or make the accounts unuseable otherwise (i.e. no shell, no procmail etc) Hochachtungsvoll, Bernhard R.
